Accelerator Pedal

Accelerator Pedal Inspection
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 69.
If the accelerator pedal has excessive play due to cable stretch or
misadjustment, it will cause a delay in throttle response, especially at
low engine speed. Also, the accelerator may not open fully.
If the accelerator pedal has no play, the accelerator may be hard to
control, and the idle speed may be erratic.
Check the accelerator pedal play periodically in accordance with the
Periodic Maintenance Chart, and adjust the play if necessary.
Inspection
Check freeplay of the accelerator pedal.
